These are cabinet-sized Hourglass Selenite Crystals from Salt Plains, Oklahoma.  Oklahoma designated the unique hourglass selenite crystal as the official state crystal in 2005 after elementary school students from Bryant and Red Oak School petitioned the state legislature.  Hourglass selenite crystals are found only on the salt plains of Oklahoma, a unique 11,000-acre geological area. The salt plains were formed by repeated flooding by sea water millions of years ago.

Selenite (hydrous calcium sulfate) is a crystallized form of gypsum, a common mineral in sedimentary environments that can take on a great variety of crystal forms and shapes. Crystals take on the characteristics of their environment - iron oxide in the soil gives the hourglass crystals their chocolate brown color.

Hourglass Selenite is thought to amplify energies, aid in achieving balance and harmony, and align the crown chakra. Its protective qualities are believed to ward off negativity, and it is often used to enhance communication and promote emotional stability.

This is a stunning specimen of calcite cubes on mordenite druse.  The crystals are well defined and look beautiful together.

Calcite is found throughout the world in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. Some geologists consider it to be a "ubiquitous mineral" - one that is found everywhere. Calcite is the principal constituent of limestone and marble. 

Mordenite was first described in 1864 by Henry How. He named it after the small community of Morden, Nova Scotia, Canada, along the Bay of Fundy, where it was first found.  It is one of the most abundant zeolites and is found in volcanic rock such as rhyolite, andesite, and basalt. It is associated with other zeolites such as stilbite and heulandite.

Astrophyllite is a striking and rare mineral known for its bronze to golden-bladed crystals that radiate like starbursts, often embedded in a dark matrix of other minerals. The name comes from Greek, meaning “star leaf,” referring to its star-like crystal formations. It  is found in locations such as Russia, Norway, Greenland, and Canada.  This specimen of Astrophyllite crystals originates from the world famous site of Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Québec. 

Astrophyllite is often seen as a stone of inner illumination and self-discovery. Some believe it helps reveal hidden potential and encourages personal truth, making it a supportive companion during times of change or reflection. It’s sometimes associated with letting go of the past and embracing a more authentic path forward.

This specimen is in very good condition and displays very well.  Make this a special specimen in your collection.

Here's a beautiful cluster of glassy green diopside crystals from Otter Lake, Québec. The specimen is made up of about six inter grown diopside crystals with some small attached biotite mica crystals. The largest diopside is 2.5cm across x 3.5cm. This is a floater specimen and all crystals are complete. The specimen is in excellent condition. The diopside crystals are prismatic habit with complex terminations.  It has a nice luster and lovely green color. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a rare and fantastic 78.3 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 54x48x31 mm.

Although its exact origin is still debated, the leading theory suggests it was formed by a high-energy event, such as a meteoric impact or airburst, that melted the desert sand directly where it lay, without being ejected into the atmosphere and re-entering. This results in different physical characteristics compared to tektites​. Libyan Desert Glass is found specifically in the Great Sand Sea of the Eastern Sahara, within a more localized area spanning parts of western Egypt and eastern Libya.

This beautiful cluster combines tetrahedrite and calcite crystals. Tetrahedrite crystals are fascinating minerals known for their distinctive tetrahedral shape and shiny, metallic luster.  It typically forms in well-defined tetrahedral crystals, which can be grouped in clusters.  The color range includes shades of metallic gray, black, and sometimes reddish hues due to the presence of copper and other trace elements. Tetrahedrite is commonly found in hydrothermal veins and is often associated with other minerals such as quartz, galena, and sphalerite.

Tetrahedrite is believed to promote emotional healing and provide a protective shield against negativity. It is thought to enhance creativity and clarity, helping individuals connect with their inner selves.

This top specimen is in very good condition. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Pseudomorphs are mineral specimens that have the external shape of one mineral but are composed of another.  The pseudomorph goethite after marcasite forms when marcasite is exposed to oxidizing conditions and starts to oxidize and break down. As the marcasite breaks down, goethite replaces it in the crystal structure, preserving the shape of the original marcasite crystal. The resulting specimen appears as a marcasite crystal, but is actually composed of goethite.

The Farafra Oasis, in the White Desert, has been known for a number of years to deliver incredible pseudomorph specimens. The pseudomorphs occur within the Cretaceous Khoman Chalk, from which the White Desert derives its name.

This specimen is remarkable for its relatively sharp and bladed marcasite crystal form.  It is in excellent condition.

Pyrite from Bolivia is known for forming beautiful, well-shaped crystals, often appearing as sharp cubes, pyritohedrons (12-sided shapes), or even complex, stepped growth patterns. Bolivian pyrite tends to have a bright, brassy gold color with a good metallic luster, and it’s often found in association with other minerals like quartz or galena. 

Much of the pyrite from Bolivia comes from mining regions such as Potosí and Oruro, areas famous for their rich mineral deposits. While pyrite is common around the world, Bolivian specimens are valued for their attractive crystal habits, clean formations, and the quality of the material.

Pyrite is known as a stone of protection, abundance, and confidence.  It is believed to shield against negative energy and promote mental clarity and willpower. 

This top Bolivian specimen is in very good condition.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

These are perfect rosettes of metallic molybdenite, almost completely exposed in a glassy quartz matrix crystals from Moly Hill, Abitibi-Temiscamingue, Québec, Canada.  The pair of rosettes measure 17mm in length.

Molybdenite is commonly found as foliated masses meaning the mineral forms folia or layers, like the mineral mica. It is metallic gray, has a greasy feel, and is very soft at only 1 on Mohs' hardness scale. Its softness, metallic luster and gray color led scientists to mistakenly believe it was a lead mineral. This specimen shows the typical hexagonal layered structure of the crystal.

Some believe molybdenite is linked to intuition, transformation, and problem-solving, helping with mental clarity and adaptability. It is sometimes associated with the third eye chakra, thought to enhance insight and creative thinking.
